I think the Loverising was Town-minded, due to Town/Town generating a duo that was mod-confirmed to each other and them dying had no effect on the amount of mislynches/NKs needed to lose/win respectively. A Town/Scum duo might seem like a fourth Scum, but it also introduces a fourth person who could be detected as Scum and whose lynch would cause the collapse of half the Scum Team (if you count the Townie as honourary Scum). Scum/Scum means Town gets two for the price of one and is profitable any way you slice it; and if they are survivor lovers who can win by eliminating the last Scum, they just NK the other Scum and win the game.
This marks the last game in which I am unwilling to vote my scum buddies period, because trying to invent cause to stay off of Raikaria clearly has done me no favours.
Sky_Paladin, I meant it when I said I didn't read your posts, they are too verbose. I also hold that you should never arm yourself with the logic you did to lynch me: while the conclusion (Bard is Scum) was correct, the entire premises was flawed to the extreme, and in that respect there is no gloating appropriate from your side for correctly lynching me. After all, you arrived at it by pure chance and coincidence. In Mafia, you lynch who you think is Scum; you don't propose someone is Scum and then lynch other people based on an untested hypothesis.
It was frustrating when you argued "Bard is arguing against me instead of people who want to lynch me" as a case for Lexicat = Bard's scumbuddy, because again, you used the Lexicat case to vote me. Like Serela diagnosed, it was such a backwards method of getting on a Scum wagon it lost all credibility that you were bussing me. That should set off warning signs─if even Serela thinks your case is ridiculous, it merits a strong reconsideration of tactics.
I still hold that asking people, "Are you Scum?" (or equivalent) and pretending the answer to that is any indication is stupid. Your play is too focused on 'GOTCHA!' methods, and so far your 'GOTCHA!' methods never once resulted in an actual 'gotcha'. Just accidents that arrive at the right conclusion through arcane, Cirno-esque ways.
Outside of that, LSD was actually playing really Town, I'm baffled people thought she was Scum.
On roles: Scum only had the Night Talker, Town had BT's role and the pile of useless that is Schezo's role.
Final note: This game has had too many people misspelling names, so for all my sanity:
MORIDIN is spelt thusly. No other way exists.
DORIAN should always include an A after I, not an O.
SERELA only has one A.
